Bursaries

Bursary Information for the 2017/2018 academic year

The Governors of Avenue House School wish to broaden access to the school by offering eligible parents means-tested financial support with the payment of fees.

This support, which is known as a Bursary, may be awarded in the form of a discount of up to 100% on tuition fees, depending on the financial circumstances of applicants.

From September 2017 we envisage offering up to two places in Year 1 to children who would benefit from the educational provision of the School, but who are prevented from doing so for financial reasons. This support will continue as long as the child attends the school, subject to certain criteria being met relating to satisfactory progress, participation in school life, and annual reassessment of the financial situation.

Avenue House is not an academically selective school. To be considered for a bursary however, children will be required to undertake an assessment to identify potential. We wish to ensure that financial assistance will be offered to those children who show the potential not only to benefit from an Avenue House education, but also to contribute positively to school life academically and perhaps with other talents – in sports, music, art or drama – in order to further enrich the school community.
